Networks offer special editions of evening news for Manchester Bombing coverage

‘CBS Evening News’

The “CBS Evening News” used its normal open with topical square shaped imagery.

The network also mixed in a union-jack inspired textural background along with a wide rectangular logotype reading “Manchester Terror Attack” placed between two thin borders with additional British flag inspired accents.

CBS’s backgrounds also incorporated a mix of imagery borrowed from footage from the scene.

A slightly different design of the horizontal logotype was also tucked atop the show’s standard lower thirds, with the union jack design moving to the far left.
